**The big picture is "The sea of energy we live in" as Moray spoke about.
Well we must believe that the foundation of everything we see and do not see is energy in one sense. I have been told that even at absolute zero that we do not stop and energy does not cease to exist, it just takes on a different form.
**Until proven wrong I consider the disk as a voltage amplifier with a current node around the center hole
Correct, but let me take this a bit further. I show this stuff (all the different ways of getting to the end of the road) mainly to cause people to think and realize that there is more than one way to (skin a cat and I love them all) so to speak. Also to show that the books contain only one answer, the answer that the (whoever) want you t believe and live by. Once you get a feel for the underlying nature of this beast, your mind runs away with itself trying and conceiving all sorts of ways to invoke the reaction.
**power spectrum and UWB
Yes, I might myself explain it a bit different and may bring in some strange things to the mix, but you are IMO pretty damn close, at least from how I view and work with it.
**In practice that means, that you face a frustrating process
Yes indeed an here is what I have so much trouble trying to get the man on the street (no disrespect to anyone, just trying establish an area), "Tuning", you can tune an exciter and get the Neon to light but never get an FL to light. You can tune to where the neon and FL's light but they always have to touch. You can tune to where the FL's (develop a polarization?) where if they go out or you make them go out you must reverse them end for end to relight (AC you say). Then you have the prime spot where you can charge an FL and get it up to good distance away staying at the same brightness (not Near field, see equations in measurement paper).
So not only is it difficult to start from the bottom and find the right spot, but becomes hard to determine why all the different displays with what appears on the surface to be the same spectrum and energy content.
**application of this geometry
This has been known for hundreds, maybe thousands of years, but ignored and put down as crap by our wondrous leaders, at least that is what they tell us. I have done nothing but apply something to my circuits, I take not credit for that at all.
** "simple" ideas is often not the first to come
Well that darn Exciter one would think could not be simpler, just wait for V4. Yes right again, a lot of ways to cross a river indeed.
I have used for most of my life the top of the line gear because I was not buying it, I like Tek although HP (Agilent) is very good. Some of the other top gear was not made when I was doing the work so I have no real idea.
If I were not a programmer I would see doing the interfaces a big task. If you went all HPIB or something like that at least the connection method would be standard. I have gear which is RS232, USB and BCD, oh one ethernet. What a mess to get into one program and plot a curve. Instead of research you code. So look for the future and determine if whatever gear you get will integrate with all the rest and funnel into one display and data capture system. I hear LabView has come a long way, have not used it for many years now.
